Forgive me if I'm totally wrong here, as I haven't done any research on capacitors in a few years but I'm thinking I remember something.

The energy output of a capacitor is a reciprocal graph so you massive output in the first second, then a huge amount less in the 2nd (times purely example, I don't know the actual output times). Wouldn't, in an F1 car, a more consistent level output be preferred? A huge quick burst would spin your wheels up whereas a lower output for longer ups your acceleration without messing your wheels by spinning.

Might be totally wrong. It's been about 3 years since I looked into that stuff and even then only did it loosely with a focus on other techs anyway.

I think they'd have solutions to normalize the output (in its simplest form a high-power, constant current diode would do the trick for instance).

Used in combination with a flywheel? Or don't use them all at once, sequentially, or something?

The discharge characteristic of a capacitor (RC time constant) is nonlinear and expressed on a curve .A variable frequency drive (VFD) for controlling AC and DC motors speed uses bussed capacitors with discharge is controlled with pulse width modulation to create a simulated AC sine wave . Another use is for DC power supplies where the discharge rate is controlled by power electronics switched on and off at a very high rate of speed resulting in an average DC voltage .This technology is widely used and is most likely already used in Formula 1 in varying degrees .It could be used to smooth out the discharge rate of a capacitor .
